Re: Choice fields not validated while saving to database

Django doesn't validate models automatically. You can validate model manually as per docs: 
<https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/ref/models/instances/#validating-objects>

 

If we put unique=True,  django validate that the field doesn't repeat.

If we don't put null=True, django validate that the field is filled.

So isn't it good to validate that the value is one of the available choices?

The following code is "failing silently"

 

class MyModel(models.Model):
    CHOICES = ((0, 'Inactive'), (1, 'Active'),)
    my_field = models.PositiveIntegerField(choices=ACTIVE_CHOICES, default=2)

obj = MyModel.objects.all()[0]
obj.my_field=100
obj.save()

Should I raise a bug in Django?
